Hamburger, Viktor

On his grant proposal (probably NSF). On his lecture plans.
On his social life. On the upcoming Growth meeting.
On his recent talk at the Anatomical Department in Philadelphia. On drosophila wing experiments. On Martha's improving health condition.
Review of F. O. Schmitt's chapter in "Analysis of Development". "He has not a single word for all my efforts trying to relate the lipo-protein structure of the cell membrane (of which he speaks a lot) to the biological phenomena of cellular adhesion, locomotion, cell division, differentiation. Instead he glorifies the blah-blah of Weiss."
On a case of fire in his house and the loss of preparations for two manuscripts.
On his book of alpine flowers. On the application of his theory of cell-type expression to the cancer problem.
On the drafts of two separate papers on the development of sympathetic projections and on the distribution of fibronection. On explanting tissues in culture and presenting them with sympathetic preganglionic neurons.
Expressed interest in Hamburger's data and mentioned the "ingrowing" process suggested by Cajal.
